Labs is a place to explore new features that we couldn’t wait to get your feedback on. We’re providing you early access, even though there is still room for improvement. Don't hesitate to let us know your thoughts about these features in our NetX Ideas Portal.
When a feature is in Labs, we’ll always announce it proudly, but we’ll also give you the opportunity to opt-out of using it. This is because while Labs features can be new and exciting, they are also still being actively developed. Their code and components are complete for the most part, but there may still be some rough edges that you can help bring to our attention. Please keep this risk in mind and be extra-cautious when using them for anything mission-critical.
Labs features are managed in NetX's System page, under the Labs tab. Each feature listed will have:
- Feature name and short description
- A link to the feature's primary documentation
- A toggle to enable and disable the feature
Enabling a Labs feature
- Navigate to the Labs tab of the Systems area.
- Choose which feature you would like to activate. If you would like to learn more about a particular feature, use the documentation button. This will open a new tab that will navigate to the confluence article on that feature.
- Use the toggle that accompanies the feature; the feature will then be enabled after refreshing your browser tab.
Disabling a Labs feature
- Navigate to the Labs tab of the Systems area.
- Choose which feature you would like to disable. If you would like to learn more about a particular feature, use the documentation button. This will open a new tab that will navigate to the confluence article on that feature.
- Use the toggle that accompanies the feature; the feature will then be disabled after refreshing your browser tab.
Some features may be tied to data and cannot be disabled automatically, e.g. vocabularies. In these cases, a warning will appear indicating what is preventing the disable action so that you may correct it.
